"Sir, Sir, we'll be leaving first.”
"Come come come, Shao Bai, here."
At the entrance of the small restaurant, Guo Degang took out a wad of money from his pocket. After counting five old men's heads, he stuffed them into Wu Shaobai's hands.
"Take it."
"There's no need, Sir. I have it here."
Wu Shaobai had money in his pocket, so he naturally didn't want this money. However, after Guo Degang stuffed it into his hand, he glared at him.
"I told you to keep it. If you play late and the weather is cold, take a taxi to send Little Tong back. It's not appropriate for girls to squeeze on the bus at night, do you hear me!”
" What's not safe about this…"
"Be obedient!"
"Uh…"
Wu Shaobai was a bit stunned, while the others were all laughing and watching the show.
Finally, under Guo Degang's glare, Wu Shaobai took the money.
"Thank you, sir."
"Go ahead."
Guo Degang waved his hand. After Wu Shaobai and Tong Liya left, he suddenly asked Xu Deliang, who was beside him,"
"Liangzi, you're right. Help me analyze…these two people…"
"It should be like this.”
Xu Deliang said.
Li Jing laughed.
"Haha, that might not be the case. In my opinion…it's not that Lang Wuqing, it's that this man…has not been enlightened at all. Come to think of it, what does a 16-year-old child know? Hahaha, don't worry about it. I can handle the two children myself.”
"…No, I have to tell Brother Pei 'er.”
Guo Degang took out his phone and looked at the two people who were gradually walking away. He shook his head as if he was speechless.
……
Xingfa Chinese herbal medicine distribution center.
The two of them walked side by side in the huge market. In the space that was filled with the smell of all kinds of medicinal herbs, they became an exception.
There was no other way. The two of them looked too young.
Even the youngest person who came here was in his thirties. The two young people attracted a lot of attention in the market as soon as they entered.
"Why are they all looking at us?”
Tong Liya asked in puzzlement.
Wu Shaobai was looking at the medicinal herbs from one stall to another. When he heard her words, he replied,
"Because our faces are too tender. Those who come here to purchase Chinese medicinal herbs are usually engaged in Chinese medicine-related work. At our age, if we are studying at home, we should be learning from our masters. Meanwhile, those in Chinese medicine schools are still understanding the pulse and acupoints. Therefore, under normal circumstances, there will not be too tender faces here unless they are the children of some merchant. But with our attire, it's obvious that we're not from the market, so we're like this.”
As he spoke, he had already walked to a stall that used sacks to store wormwood leaves.
The stall owner glanced at him and ignored him.
Wu Shaobai reached his hand into the sack containing the mugwort leaves.
The boss was unhappy.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? What are you looking for?"
"Blind rummaging?"
Wu Shaobai smiled.
He looked around and said,
"Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning by following this green head?”
The two merchants who were also selling medicinal herbs in sacks were stunned. Immediately, including this merchant, their expressions became somewhat strange.
"Oh? Understand? Then is that bullying?"
As he spoke, he reached his hand back into the sack. This time, he was even more excessive than before. He used his hand to probe inside with all his might. After his entire arm was stabbed in, the sound of the mugleaves breaking could be heard endlessly. In the end, he grabbed out a large handful of mugleaves.
Reaching out, he said to the boss,"
"Pan."
The boss didn't even say anything and quickly handed over a flat wooden plate.
A large handful of mugwort leaves were spread out on the wooden tray. Amidst the fragrance of mugwort, Wu Shaobai casually grabbed a handful. He looked at it first, then smelled it, and finally used his hand to push it away…Then, he looked at the shop owner and poured the mugwort leaves back into the pot. He left without saying a word with Tong Liya, who was filled with curiosity.
The shop owner didn't have the impatient attitude he had at the beginning. Instead, he sat down again.
"…You and that boss…"
Tong Liya was a little puzzled. After taking a few steps, she asked softly,
"Did they reach a tacit understanding?“
"You can tell?"
Wu Shaobai smiled.
"At first, he treated me as someone who didn't know anything about the industry, so I wanted to see the quality of this batch of mugwort leaves, but he didn't let me. Because in our line of work…or rather, as long as it's a trading firm, as long as the goods can be placed at the top, they will definitely be the best. The bad ones were all hidden below. Therefore, most people who knew the ropes had to start from the bottom of the sack to check the quality of the whole bag. This was the rule of the medicinal herbs store, and also the rule of the entire market. He thought I was an amateur and that not letting me touch it was equivalent to breaking the rules. And those who broke the rules were easily unlucky. So I reminded him a few words, and his batch of mugwort leaves was indeed confusing. The top was authentic Lingnan mugwort leaves, but the bottom was mixed with small mugwort leaves and fake mugwort leaves that were often used with mugwort leaves to confuse people. Therefore, I won't buy it, but I won't expose him either. But if I come back later, he has to give me the real thing. He can't fool me. Do you understand?“
"So powerful."
Tong Liya's eyes were filled with surprise.
"Is this the unspoken rule of this industry?”
"Unspoken rules? No, this was the rule and the martial world.”
Wu Shaobai smiled.
